According to a study from ABI Research, the fourth-generation (4G) technology Long Term Evolution (LTE) is forecast to have more than 32 million subscribers by 2013.
ABI senior analyst Nadine Manjaro attributes about 37.5 percent or 12 million of the subscribers to Asia-Pacific countries, while the remaining percentage will be split between Western Europe and North America. Telecom companies that have announced their plans of adopting 4G LTE include China Mobile, Japan's NTT Docomo and KDDI, Vodafone and Verizon Wireless.
How will the adoption of LTE benefit the sectors involved? Will India be able to adopt this technology?
